Taylor Swift – We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together

Taylor is hugely popular among Japanese women—not just for her songs, of course, but also for her beautiful face and stylish fashion sense that many admire.

This is one of her greatest hits among many.

It’s practically a must-sing karaoke song for girls who love Western pop!

I Want It That WayBackstreet Boys

Backstreet Boys – I Want It That Way (Official HD Video)

The Backstreet Boys are still active today, but back then they were idol-like figures who made women around the world swoon.

They were like One Direction, and I imagine many women talked about which member they liked and so on.

My AllMariah Carey

Mariah Carey – My All (Official HD Video)

This Latin-tinged ballad, released as the final single from the 1998 album “Butterfly,” became her 13th No.

1 on the U.S.

charts.

Inspired by the culture she experienced in Puerto Rico, it sets a poignant longing for a separated lover against the sound of acoustic guitar.

From whispery lows to soaring highs in the finale, Mariah Carey’s delicate vocals shine throughout.

The monochrome music video directed by Herb Ritts is equally beautiful, with seaside and lighthouse imagery that enhances the song’s sensual world.

A heart-stirring classic ballad, perfect for nights when you can’t be with the one you love.

MAGIC! – Rude (Official Video)

It’s a relatively recent song, but it became a huge hit.

I think many people fell for its pop sound and the cool band members, but if you listen closely, the lyrics are interesting too, making it a wonderful track.

I bet a lot of girls would love to be thought of this way, don’t you think?

DiamondsRihanna

Rihanna – Diamonds

Diamond is a famous song by Rihanna, often called a global songstress.

There was a time when you’d hear it everywhere you went in the city.

Considering the past incidents like the domestic violence case with Chris Brown, her continued success is truly heartening.

Everything’s Gonna Be AlrightBob Marley

Bob Marley – Everything’s Gonna Be Alright

Even if you’re not a reggae fan, you probably know Bob Marley—the undisputed god of reggae.

When it comes to his masterpieces, I think this song stands out.

I imagine many women have been uplifted by its upbeat reggae rhythm and encouraging lyrics.

We Are YoungFun

Fun.: We Are Young ft. Janelle Monáe [OFFICIAL VIDEO]

This is a classic song by a three-piece band whose debut album suddenly dominated the top spots on charts around the world—an incredible achievement.

Surely everyone has heard it at least once.

The music video is stylish, too.

I haven’t heard much from them lately—what are they up to now, I wonder?
